Lucie Cheng

Lucie Cheng was a Taiwanese sociologist who was known for her work in Asian American studies, as well as being the first permanent director of the Asian American Studies Center at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She was also one of the first academics from the United States to visit mainland China after the country normalized its relations with China. After the end of the war, the family returned to Hong Kong, though Cheng's older brother later returned to People's Republic of China to help further the socialist cause. In 1952, the family moved Cheng and her elder sister Catherine Chia-lin Cheng (成嘉玲) to Taiwan.
